Some NY Giants fans who made the trip to Arizona may be disappointed when they get to the gates of the stadium gates this afternoon.

Those Super Bowl XLII tickets they paid thousands of dollars for may be fake.

The Arizona Republic reported game officials are expecting dozens of fans to get turned away at the gates when they show up at the University of Phoenix stadium with counterfeit tickets. According to the story:

In past years, "we've had anywhere from a few hundred to several hundred people show up at the (Super Bowl) gate with counterfeit tickets, which is terrible when you consider how far they traveled and how much they spent," Danias said.

When the Super Bowl was played in Miami last year, roughly 70 people were turned away because they presented a fake ticket, a ticket that was reported stolen or tried to go to the game after their ticket was stolen, according to the NFL.

Counterfeiters have gotten good at making up tickets that look like the real thing, NFL officials said.
